Millaisia niiden viinit ovat

Bullas is traditionally a region for red wines, although its whites and rosés are also of excellent quality. The Montrasell variety of red wine is particularly outstanding. It is characteristic of Murcia and is an autochthonous variety of this Designation of Origin. This small-grain wine is compact looking with a highly intense blue-violet colour. The colour, aroma, flavour and abundance of components give these wines a characteristic identity with beneficial properties for the health.
